So no regard is paid to the 10 computers in our office throwing off heat. Didn't you have this problem last year? Ain't they figgered it out yet?
My office isn't quite so bad, but I'm takin' a desk lamp today so's I can leave the overhead lights off. I gots a fan runnin' so that helps.

Nope. I wasn't still online but I don't have cable anyway.

Well, discovering *where* the thermostat is explains much of the problem we've been having- namely that the heating or cooling, once running, never shuts off.
As soon as it hits 85 degrees outside, the AC will run until the outside air cools down. Idjits. Waste o' my tax money.

No vids, but we did make big holes in some assets. Sucks to be the bad guy. More tests going off this week, I'll be out there again next week collectin' data. We also had a close encounter with a UXO. The range guys were beside themselves with embarassment that they missed it- but there it was. (EEEEK!)

Good morning! Well...I missed the whole weekend here, and I don't have time to catch up. Hope I didn't miss anything REALLY important...
Jen, you graduated this weekend, right? Congratulations!
Going to have gorgeous weather this week: sixties today and low seventies for the rest of the week. Thunderstorms...but I can deal with that! I'm going to have to get some flowers after I get paid on Thursday - looks like we're finally past the danger of any serious frost.
And my mint survived the winter! Not only that, but I have other herbs coming back up again. Never thought that would happen! I have parsley and dill, at the least...there are a couple of other patches of something, but it's still too little and too weak scented for me to be able to say for sure what it is. I still need to plant chives and oregano and maybe rosemary...some will have to wait a few weeks until it's REALLY past any frost.

About ten or fifteen years back, there was someone who was smashing all the mailboxes in town where I grew up. The neighbor who shares a post with us had theirs smashed, badly. Soo...they bought a bulldozer-proof mailbox made of some sort of high tech plastic.
However...turns out it wasn't BULLET proof.

Someone I used to work with put up a mailbox within a mailbox scheme with concrete in between.
To: Overtaxed
Heh...that'd do it.
I get this mental image of Daffy Duck hitting something with a hammer that then won't stop shaking.

Heard a fragrep this morning on the way to the loo, that J. Eff'n says the economy is doing all right! Didn't hear anything else...by the time I got back to the TV, they were Kobe-ing.
Anyone else hear this/know what's about?

There's a thread around here somewhere (or maybe a couple). Unemployment claims are the lowest since 2000.
RATS have lost the economy as an issue.
